Question: is there any way to set the default value of a Switch button?

Use case: the switch is initially set to False. A user comes in and toggles the Switch (to True); this gets written to the sheet, and when next user comes in, the default value is now True. I would like it to reset to False between users.

Hello,  
There is a default value, if you are using an ADD, Edit or “Action Form” but not if you are using a switch directly in a tab

Would this be a user-specific value? In that case, it should not be written to the Sheet if I understand this right.

No, it would not be user-specific.

How would this logic be satisfied? What is the time for a script trigger to revert the switch back to False?
